Functional Medicine for Exhausted Career Women | Chronic Fatigue Illness, Anxiety, How to Reduce Stress, Hormones, Overcome Tired: 54. Why Putting Your Health First Isn’t Selfish: A Biblical Approach to Lasting Health
Description
Does this sound familiar?
"I’ll start on Monday."
"Once this project is done, then I’ll focus on myself."
"When "fill in the blank" season is over, I’ll have more time."
If you’ve ever caught yourself saying these things, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too. But here’s the hard truth: those “some days” often turn into never.
This week on the Functional Medicine for Exhausted Career Women podcast, I’m sharing an episode that hits close to home. It’s all about why we put our health on the back burner and how to reframe our mindset for a God-centered, sustainable approach to wellness.
In this episode, I share:
- A deeply personal story about how neglecting health impacted my family.
- The three biggest reasons we delay prioritizing our health.
- Scriptural truths, like Proverbs 4:23 , reminding us why our health matters to God’s purpose for us.
- Practical strategies for small, impactful changes you can make today.
You’ll walk away feeling empowered, not guilty, and with tools to start honoring God with your health—even in the busiest seasons of life.
Here’s what I want you to know:
Taking care of your health isn’t about perfection. It’s about making intentional choices and trusting God to guide you through them.
If this message resonates with you, take a moment to reflect on one small change you can make today to prioritize your health. And don’t forget to pray and ask God for wisdom and strength to walk this path.
I also created a free resource to help you start taking action today. Head to FunctionalHealthForWomen.com to access it.
Your health matters, not just for you, but for the calling God has on your life.
In health,
Lacy Lain, FMCHC, LEHP
